บท 38: Ch.38 Don't lose your head!
Jie and Zero grabbed ahold of him and shouted, "Zheng! Calm down, we are safe now! Hurry, otherwise the Japanese police will come!"
They dragged Zheng away. He felt feeble and couldnt even stand by himself. As the house was going out of sight, Zheng took one last look at it and that woman was there again.
[Scene Break]
"You calmed down yet?" said Zero as he handed him a can of coke.
Zheng forced a smile. "Thanks for that; It seems like I have become a dead weight."
They were sitting in a small park. Zero went away after he dragged Zheng here, and brought back soda and packaged food.
Even though the rations they exchanged didnt cost much, they wanted to save the rations until necessary.
Seeing Zheng took a cold drink and felt much better. Lan ask, "Are you alright? I've told them that, you can sense the curse. You're the only one among us that can sense it, so we will have to depend on you."
"This feeling is too intense. If it continues, I will probably go crazy from the fright before the ghosts get me." Zheng said after taking another sip from his soda.
The boy suddenly said in a cold voice, "You are too skittish. When you encounter unexplainable things, the first thing to do, is not to panic; but, try to understand them. Even though you look like you have power, you're just a weakling."
He said it without raising his head. His voice sounded like a girl, and his skin was even fairer than Lans. But he had been reading the book this whole time so no one got a clear look of his face.
Zheng was surprised. "Yeah, I am a bit jumpy. Sorry I haven't introduced myself yet, My name is Zheng Zha, the temporary leader of this team."
"You have seen that thing back there, so you believe us now, right? Even though it sounds unbelievable, we are in a world of movies."
[Scene Break]
This was the conclusion the four of them came up with. They couldnt agree with Xuan during those nine days; plus Kris said nothing to refute the decision; So, even Zero joined their team. Though Zheng only thought of himself as a temporary leader since no one knew when; they were going to die.
[Scene Break]
Jie took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Zheng and Zero. "My name is Zhang Jie, I can count as a gunner."
Lan laughed. "I am Zhan Lan, support, not good in combat but I can bandage and help analyze some situations."
"Zero, sniper."
The three young men looked at each other. "Lu Renjia, Im still a college student."
"Xiao Binyi, unemployed."
"Qun Zhongding, senior college student."
The woman yawned. "Ming Yanwei, HR manager, but Japan huh, Ive always wanted to travel around Japan. Didnt expect to fulfill this wish before I die."
Of the two people left, the man that checked the house said, "Qi Tengyi, I'm an otaku just kidding..., I'm an appraiser for grave robbers. I wish to join your team."
Zheng smiled, 'an appraiser would be someone they'd need. He could be useful in many movies.'
The boy put down his book and when they took a look at his face, they realized she was a girl! She was about fifteen, and had a pair of eyes similar to Xuans.
"Zhao Yinkong, assassin." Her voice was cold. She went back to her book. Zheng, Jie, and Lan turned to Zero.
Zheng nodded, 'He was worried if, a conflict would occur between Zero and Yinkong, but it seemed like they didnt know each other. Even assassins wouldnt necessarily know each other.'
Then Zheng continued, "I think we need money the most at the moment. We have to live here for seven days after all, unless you all want to stay in the streets."
Zheng laughed then took out two gold bars from the ring. "He handed them to Zero and said, Luckily I exchanged these gold bars from God. Zero, youre probably more familiar with the underworld than us. Exchange these gold bars for Japanese Yen, it should be enough for us. And buy a few copies of the local map. Including hotel locations and any temples which are around here... Oh! and can any of you speak Japanese?"
But before anybody could anwser Lan ask, " Didn't you ask for one of those Black Bank Cards from sister Felicity?"
He wanted to but was too ashamed 'cause he already got a few bars of gold sitting in his NA ring.
Yanwei and Tengyi both said, "I know a little." so Zheng was saved from responding. Sighing in relief...
As Zheng was going to continue, Yinkong also said, "I know Japanese; why do you want the location of the temples?"
Zheng smiled at her. "Since there are curses in this world, why cant there be temples that can remove the curse? If logic from the real world doesnt apply here, then we will think using the logic of this world."
She put down her book. "Youre quite interesting, even though youre a weakling with power, "But, you seem to have a good head on your shoulders, I will join the team; But the moment you betray me, just be prepared to lose a head or two."
As Zheng smiled at her nervously...
Zheng coughed. "Then its decided. Zero, try to get some guns. Also, we have a lot of magical bullets. Try to arm everyone with a gun."
Zero put the gold bars in his pocket and walked away...
[Scene Break]
Zero came back to the park by evening, Boarding 3 Taxis the group then proceeded to look for a hotel.
When everyone was settled and comfortable with the arrangement, Zheng talk about his plans; He went on by telling the group about, looking for aways to fight the ju-on in the local temples.
With a plan set they rested, to prepare for what's to come the following morning...
[Scene Break]
Mean while...
Kris wasn't having such a relaxed time. Ever since, Zheng and the rest left the house with the ju-on. Kris was constantly hounded, by the pale skinned ghost kid.
It did not cause him any harm what so ever, It just constantly shows up and observes him; which is very creepy. Even though it was annoying, Kris didn't realy minded it.
But, the presence of the ghost kid, eats away the energy within his amulet. The ghost kid, brings along an aura of cold, that the amulet deems harmful, so it releases its energy to protect Kris.
What's worst is Kayako's attempts to kill him. From time to time, she would show up and cause accidents around him. Giving him a good round for his money. Since he was last at the house, Kayako already attempted to kill him 3 times.
Which also, made the anti-evil talisman he had, release more white smoke and subsequently consumes the talisman. Bring it to only, about half of what it used to be. That and the continues activation of his persona, is really taking its toll.
Kris could only sigh and say, "If this goes on, I'll die even before Xuan, Damn that nosy ghost kid! I just hope, he doesn't call me papa soon or I'll blow a gasket!!"
